The Law Of the Land.

By the law of the land is most clearly
intended the general law; law which
hears before it condemns; which proceeds
upon inquiry, and. renders judgment only
after trial. The meaning is that every
citizen shall hold his life, liberty, prop
erty. and immunities, under the protection
of the general rules which govern society.
Everything which may pass under the
form of an enactment is not therefore to
be considered the law of the land.-DdnieI
Webster.
The definition here given is apt and
suitable as applied to judicial proceedings
which cannot be valid unless they "pro-
ceed upon inquiry" and render Judgment
only after trial" It is entirely correct,
also, in assuming that legislative enact
ment is not necessarily the law of the
land. The words, "by the law of the land"
as used in the constitution, do not mean
statute passed for the purpose of working
the wrong. That construction would rem
der the restriction absolutely nugatory,
and turn this part of the constitution into
mere nonsense.-Bronson j., IN Taylor rs.
Porter, 4 Hill, Page l4o.

THE SOCIAL LEAGUE,
The Minutes..of the Interesting Meeting
Held Last Sunday.
j. D. VAUGHN, President.

The League was called to order, Com
rade Shove in the chair. "Our Cause was
sung on opening, Miss Abbie Skinner at
the organ.
Lesson No. from the Socialist cate
chism was read by Comrades Macdonald
and Callahan.
Comrade Haskell made the remarks on
the lesson, methods of Evolution" and
entered deeply into the merits of his inter-
esting subject.
The speaker clearly and logically proved
that the rewards in this life ought to be
so regulated that he who cOnfers the grea-
est benefit of society should receive the
greatest reward.
At Comrade Haskell's conclusion the
chair announced that any auditor who de-
sired might ask any question in regard to
the statements made by any speaker. No
disbeliever made his presence known.
Next on the programme came little
Bette Craig with recitation which, as
usual, was perfectly rendered
Comrade Ashton came next with de-
clamation which was delivered in his usual
proper manner.
Next on the programme Comrades v.
Tennant and John Brophy read the
"Breadwinners' Friend" The little paper
contained several very good original con-
tributions by members of the League.
The Cheesewright brothers then favored
the League with their original character
song entitled "The Millionaire and the
Tramp.
Comrade Shove closed the meeting by
taking as his subject the song and briefly
and lucidly explained the process Of ira mp
making. The speaker e1horted the ladies
to take an interest and an active part as
as no great reform can be successful with
out the work and devotion of the pure
minded mothers and daughters of this
land, 8:

et," and rejoiced that anarchy had been
showed under as IL never was showed un-
der before"
Now there l. but one fair way Of judg-
ing the United Labor Party Of Chicago
and its ticket, that is, by examining the
platform which the party adopted and the
candidates whom the party put in nomi-
nation. As for the United Labor plat
form, there was surely not word of an
archy, or squint toward anarchy, in all
that. As for the men put in nomination,
the candidate for mayor, Robert Nelson,
Is the Master Workmen Of one of the most
populous and powerful districts Of the
Knights of Labor; and every other candi-
date on the ticket, with the single excep-
tion of the conservative lawyer who ran
for city attorney, is member of the Or
der in good standing, and subscriber to
the Declaration Of Principles" which is
the very opposite Of anarchy.
We are well aware that the capitalist
papers of Chicago ferociously denounce
the party and its candidates as anarchists;
but those very papers which lied about
the United Labor ticket of Chicago had
previously lied in the very same way
about Mr.. Powderly himself, and this
ought to have put him on his guard, as
he put others on their guard last August.
In the speech which he delivered in Coop
er Institute, in this city, last October, he
said he had often been denounced as an
anarchist and communist and so little
heed did he give to the charge that he did
not take the trouble to repudiate it.
The United Labor Party of Chicago, at
the election of the 9th inst, polled total
Of nearly 24,000 votes, or 1000 more than
last November; and surely thsse could not
have represented anarchism, for the Off
cial report of the grand jury which in
dicted the eight anarchists, stated that
there were only about 100 anarchists in
the whole city Of Chicago.

It's Meeting ON Last Sunday.
DENVER, CoLo, May 8, 1885.

[OHicial.] The regular meeting of the
Trades Assembly opened in due form with
the President, ]. D. Vaughn, in the chair,
at p. m. last Sunday.
The minutes of the previous meeting
were. ..read.and approved. G
non motion the credentials Of John
scheaAy (of the Iron Moulders Union)
was received and the delegate obligated.
The carpenters delegation drew atten-
ton to the fact that the bosses were try
ing to enforce 10 hours upon the carpen'
ters again.
On motion a committee of three was
appointed to make arrangements for hold.
ing mass meeting for the purpose OF or
ganizing the carpenters and joiners mort
thoroughly; also to establish theS hour sys
ten among the building trades. This
meeting will be held tomorrow. All
should attend.
Mr.. Menche drew attention to the pro
posed treaty between Russia and the U
s., referring to political refugees from
Russia to this country. Not knowing the
exact contents of the treaty it was sug-
gested to correspond with the Crqftsmar'
to get copy of the same.
After some other routine business the
Assembly adjourned.

THAT HARRISBURG sPEDcH.
Does Mr.. sw,nson tell 'hs Truth soo" 10

There being doubt in the minds of some
as Ito whether or no Mr.. Powderiy ever
used the words attributed to him at Har-
risburg, the following from John Swinfon's
Paper ia worth reading;
In August Of last year, we published n
letter written to us by Mr.. Powderly, in
which he branded as a forgery the reports
OF speech which the capitalist papers
had attributed to him. They had falsely
nut violent utterances into his mouth, as
trying to stir up strife between the
Knights Of Labor and the militia; and MIR.
Powderly was forcible in condemnation of
this wrong.
liIt looked n few days ago, as though
there had been another forgery of like
Nind in the report of his alleged speech
before the X. OF l.. convention at Harris
burg; but the Philadelphia Press, which
published the report, says II was procured
from Mr.. Powderiy's stenographer. We
fear, therefore. that he has made the mis-
take Of accepting just such false reports
about the United Labor Party Of Chicago
as we're published about himself last year.

PowDERLY AND THE KNIGHTS.
The Republican seems to have gotten
most of its facts (.) concerning last
nights session of the X. of l.. from Mr..
Driscoll. The meeting was, of course,
very large and the interest could not have
been greater. To all questions indicating
an Indifference or lukewarmness or shadow
of duplicity to him, Mr.. Powderly's an
swers we're positive negatives. Most GER
tainly the order here will be stronger and
more harmonious from the fact of Mr..
Powderly's visit and this meeting. 1t
would have been yet deal stronger and
more harmonious had it not been for a
blunder of Mr.. Driscoll who introduced
the resolution which the Republican says
twas adopted without opposition" The
facts are, that the resolution was the
cause of no little acrimonious debate,
and failed to 90 through as, submitted
only securing majority for it when it
had been very materially amended. Mr..
Powderly is Roman Catholic and so is
Mr.. Driscoll. This seems to form bond
of sympathy between the two which could
not otherwise exist, as Mr.. Powderly is
soul and mind against Anarchism, which
Mr.. Drisooll is not, being of a temporiz-
ing character for "policy's" sake, when
standing in the gap between the Anarch-
ist labor vote and the anti-Anarchist labor
vote.
Therefore, Mr.. Driscoll's resolution, as
prepared and submitted by him, went too
far for those present-not in that it sup
ported Mr.. Powderly and declared conf
dence in him, but in that it embodied
reflection upon those who were not &C.
counted among Mr.. Powderly's most ar
dent supporters. The resolution as 1t
passed, expressed confidence in Mr.. Pow
derly, which was all that should have been
attempted. II is not true, either, that the
editor of the ENQUIRER was satisfied
though that is matter Of small moment
He is a disturber and an insubordinate
member in the order and an anarchist
and such creatures can only be satisfied
when they reign. The censure of such
characterless disturbers must be accepted
by the general public as a certificate OF
good behavior. But this fact is no justi-
ication for misstating other facts. The
| ESquIRxR man stated at the meeting that
he could not say that he accepted the
statements Of Mr.. Powderly as conclusive
since, if they were true, he must admit
that others in whom his confidence wal
great were liars.
Mr.. Powderly says that he will not take
any part in politics and when asked about
becoming the democratic nominee fol
Vice. President, simply responded that he
would mot accept any second place

To News reporter who called on Mr..
Powderly at the Windsor hotel be e1-
pressed satisfaction and pleasure at his
reception and entertainment in Denver.
He further said: "The handful of An
archists in this country have been making
all sorts of moves in order to gain admis-
sion into the knights of Labor and cause
dissatisfaction. Thus far they have ArIED.
The Anarchists have no hold on our or
ganization. If they were the true Social
lists would reach out my hand and shake
theirs, but they are not. I am Socialist
bat not an Anarchist, and when ! see a
man who processes the faith of the latter
I know that there is screw loose some
where-something is lacking in his mental
powers"
"Mr. Powderly, do you think that the
laboring mems party would win if they
nominated a candidate for the presidency
re1t year?"
~ do not know. They might"
"would not such q candidate receive
the support of the Knights of Labor"
"There, want to correct the popular
mistake. The Knights Of Labor is not
political organization. 1t is distinct from
the Labor party, and politics are never
discussed in the meetings of the Knights
of Labor as an organization. There are
men of all beliefs and parties repre-
sented. Democrats, Republicans, Labor
ing Men and Prohibitionists are repre-
sensed in our body, but as an organiza-
ton we never indorse any one man. We
do not take part in political contro-
versies."

SUPREME OOURT.

Col. John AtkinsOn's name has been
favorably mentioned as a candidate for
Justice of the Supreme Court on the
| Republican Ticket and as the Colonel
is a st. Clair County man - better
known here than anywhere in the
state-we take pleasure sec0nding his
nomination and if he can be induced
to accept, we feel that he would add
great strength to the ticket and excep-
tionally good timber to the supreme
court
Col Atkinson's opinions would be
able his clearness of statement IS one
of the distinguishing features of his
eminent career as lawyer-he is just
past forty-hve years of age-in full
physical and mental health, and thor
onghly equipped for such a place. 1t
should not be forgotten that Col. Atkin-
son was IA soldier and the veterans of
st. Clair county nearly all enlisted un-
der his command. They would recog-
nize his nomination as a partial esteem
to them for their services. lie also
stands nearer the hearts of the Irish
people than any other man in the state.
These considerations are suggestions
for party reasons, but for personal tit
ness. great abilities and good character
we also commend the colonel to our
state convention and we give our
assurance that st. Clair, Sanilac, Huron
and Macomb counties can be counted
OH to give him significant vote on
election day.

SCHOOL, LIBRARY,

A school district the size of ours
should have library. BY provision
of the school law, districts that have
established Libraries receivea share of
the clear proceeds of penal fines for the
support of such libraries. "A well Sc
lected library is great addition to the
working capacity of a school. With
this in view, the pupils will give an en-
tertainment on next Saturday evening,
the proceeds of which will be used to
purchase books to form the nucleus OF
a school library. These books will bt
the property of the Students Associa
ton, an organization formed by the pu
pills and teachers of the school, unit
the next annual meeting; when, 1T IL
to be hoped, the voters of the distric
will decide TO establish school library
When this is done, the library of th'
Students Association will be presented
